I have to admit when I was a kid, I used to call it Goofy, thinking it was for some strange reason named after a beloved Disney character. But little did I know, it was only my young untrained ears that were picking up my parents' Indian pronounciation of the word, taking the "k" sound and turning into a soft "g".
Kulfi is to India, as gelato is to Italy. |
A cool icy treat, it usually comes in popsicle-form on a stick, but occassionally you'll find it in bowl-form as well. Although the flavours are endless, I would recommend the traditional pistachio or mango flavours for any first-timer. It also comes in the original malai kulfi, malai meaning cream, but it's not as exciting once you've had the others.
I know this is the real deal, but I still think J's mom makes it way better. |
